Dollar Coins from US Mint at face value with Free Shipping

taken from gatzdon@fw.

Currently, you can order either $250 or $500 in John Quincy Adams Dollar Coins from the US Mint at FACE VALUE, with FREE SHIPPING AND HANDLING and pay with any major credit card.
The purpose of this is to help promote circulation of these dollar coins as there is an unwillingness of many banks to provide them to business customers free of charge.
As a coin collector, I had a tough time writing the title for this thread. I didn't want to state the obvious benefit of this deal, but I know that it's the only reason why it would appeal the FW Finance Crowd. If someone really needs it to be said, someone else can explain it down below. Personally, I posted because I hope some of you actually spend some rather than taking them straight to the bank.

Note: You must choose standard shipping during the order process and the shipping charge will revert to $0.00 at the final confirmation screen before your order is submitted.

Buy gold & silver instead. All modern money is worth less than the metal/paper it's made from.

That's not the point. "Thomnspear" is correct... this is a very handy deal for getting some credit card rewards. In my case, I have an older card that is just a few bucks away from being able to cash out at a certain rewards level. I never really use this card anymore, but in this case, I will purchase enough dollar coins to get over that hump. Since they're going straight to the bank to pay off said credit card, there is no loss.

The coins will arrive in boxes of 25-coin rolls within about two weeks, and the United States Mint will pay the standard shipping and handling costs (domestic orders only).

For the Circulating $1 Coin Direct Ship Program, the United States Mint accepts credit cards (VISA, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover) and debit cards issued as check cards with a VISA or MasterCard logo. The United States Mint cannot process debit cards that require a PIN (personal identification number).

Please note that for this special program:

* Orders are limited to two boxes ($500) per President
* Specific coins are available only while supplies last
* All sales are final
* Any special shipping and handling is the responsibility of the customer

Use credit card to earn rebate.

Not sure how long it takes to shipped to you. But if they send you quick enough, you may get the coins before you have to pay your credit card bill. And use the coins to pay for your credit card bill while earning your credit card rebate!!!
